SCHLOTTHEIMIA Russyana C. Miller, n. sp. Near Yungas, 4600 
ft. 1883 (3191). 
Plants densely matted together in dark red-brown cushions 
among the roots of orchids. Stems trailing, branches erect, about 
I cm. long; leaves densely crowded at the apex of the branches, 
erect-appressed and plicate when dry, 1-1.5 mm. long, oblong, 
obtuse, the vein ending in a short cuspidate apex; upper cells in 
regular transverse rows, the blade slightly undulate; lower elon-

determined. 
Zygodon recurvifolius Sch. Sorata, Bolivia, 8000 ft. Feb., 
1886 (3194.) 
Compared with type in Herb. Schimper at Kew, no. 1629, G. 
Mandon Plantae Andium Boliviensium Exsicc. from Vicinius Sor- 
ata; also compared with no. 1627 Z. ferrugineus Sch., of the same 
Exsiccatae, Dr. Miiller having determined Dr. Rusby’s specimen 
as the last named species. It is unmistakably the former having 
much larger leaves which quickly become recurved when moist- 
ened. The plants also are not at all rusty. M. Bescherelle has 
Subsequently supplied me with duplicates of Mandon’s nos. 1629 
and 2627 and I have recently been able to verify my previous de- 
termination, ; 
EntostHopon papittosum E, G. Britton, n. sp. Sorata 10000 ft. 
Feb. 1886 (3131). : 
: Plants scattered on hard, bare patches of earth; plants includ- 
Ing the sporophyte 5-8 mm. high; leaves few, rosulate, long subu- 
late, acuminate, the vein excurrent into or ending below the long 
slender lip, margins entire; cells very lax. Dioecious. Seta 5-8 
mm. long, stout, densely papillose, erect or slightly arcuate whem 
dry, sinuous when moist; capsule globose-pyriform, about 2 mm. 
long, including the stomatose neck; lid flat; peristome none; 
Calyptra not lobed at base. Pe 
Allied to Z. Lindigii Hpe. according to the description and 
key given by Mitten (Musci, Austro-Americani, p. 243), but differ- 
ing in the densely papillose pedicel. This and the following 
Species were found growing together in the same patches.

have not a subulate tip; in both, the leaves are not bordered and
